Your New Scoop Site

Welcome to Scoop!

To help you figure things out, there is a Scoop Admin Guide which can hopefully answer most of your questions.

Some tips:

Most of the layout is changed in "Blocks", found in the admin tools menu
Features can be turned on and off, and configured, in "Site Controls" in the admin tools menu
Stories have an "edit" link right beside the "Full Story" link on an index page, and right beside the "Post a Comment" link on the full story page. They can also be edited by clicking the story title in the "Story List" admin tool
Boxes are what allow you to write new features for Scoop; they require a knowledge of the perl programming language to work with effectively, although you can often make small changes without knowing much perl. If you would like a feature added but cannot program it yourself, ScoopHost does custom Scoop programming as one of its services.
If you aren't sure where to look for a particular feature or piece of display, try the "Search Admin Tools" link in the admin tools menu.

For support, questions, and general help with Scoop, email support@scoophost.com

ScoopHost.com is currently running Scoop version Undeterminable from .

This has been a fun piece of MDP schadenfreude I've been keeping an eye on over at a Lefty blog, which there's no real good reason to name, however, this is the latest mLive newsish meat and potatoes.

First Ward Councilwoman Jody Washington, who first brought the matter before the council two weeks ago, presented the resolution for passage at Monday's regular meeting but later pulled it before a vote was taken due to what she termed a "surprise announcement" from Bernero's executive assistant, Randy Hannan.
....
"I absolutely never intended to embarrass anybody...that's what you're trying to say," said Washington, who often butts heads with Bernero. [snip]

But, of course, ~~Eric~~ Jody

BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

How Boehner single-handedly lost the GOP Majority in the House for 2014

{facepalm} Every House Republican't that voted for a second term of Weeper Boehner should be tarred, feathered, and ran out of town on a rail. That should be the "teachable moment" for Representative Steve King. It's the pandering Politically Correct garbage in the GOP "Big Tent" that will stab one in the back just as fast, if not faster, than the ~~Democratic~~ Socialist Party plantation race warlord poverty pimps.

A Message To Our Legislators - Beware False Choices

Youth Is Indestructible - (Or Who Needs Wendy?)

When we are young we know we'll never die.

Maybe we never have to grow up?

All risks are worth it. We have nothing to lose, so risky behavior is more frequent than that of old people like most of the regulars here. Nothing puts a little perspective on the value of health, and a place on the right hand of God than the impending end of our physical presence on earth.

Typically, it starts when the grandparents are no longer there. Perch fishing with Grandpa no longer can drive home the fact that there is an end to the road in some way. After that, the passing of parents, siblings or close friends from school days long passed, and all the experiences and close calls in the meantime develop a healthy dose of respect for the place we will spend eternity. And how soon we get there will have a lot to do with the personal responsibility, acknowledged in, or outside of youthful discretion.

I jumped off rooftops to prove I was cool as a teen. My brothers (ahem) may have climbed to the top of a 50 thousand watt WKAR tower in Okemos in the 70s. And once by luck, my Mother [God bless her soul] found a young dumb 14 year old Jason choking to death in the manner of Led Zepplin Drummer John Bonham.

I have never drank a whole bottle of Bacardi with Coke in a single setting since.

There is no doubt that risky behavior is a bigger part of youth than those who have seen the results of such behavior first hand, or that have developed an appreciation by virtue of near misses on their own or by loved ones. Though I was lucky to have survived many stupid exploits, many pay dearly for such antics as trying to fly like a lost boy under tinkerbell's guidance.

And the liberal world view as equally immature, compels such activity as well.
